Los Angeles Rams DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington (shoulder) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. He had been listed as questionable after logging limited practices ahead of Week 9. The 24-year-old has been dealing with an injury ever since Week 7, and it's going to result in him being sidelined for at least one more game. Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua continue to be the only must-start fantasy receivers within the Rams' offense.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee) is officially active for Week 9 against the Seattle Seahawks. Nacua had been listed as questionable, and there were real concerns about his availability after he missed practice on Friday. In the end, though, he'll suit up for Sunday's divisional battle. Nacua is coming off a seven-catch, 106-yard performance and should continue to be treated as a low-end fantasy WR1 versus Seattle.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee) will play on Sunday in Week 9 on the road against the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. Nacua tweaked his right knee in practice and was listed as questionable on Friday's final Week 9 injury report. However, the Rams said that his injury wasn't considered serious and that he was expected to play all along. The 23-year-old injured his knee in the season opener and didn't return until the Thursday night win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 8, catching seven of nine targets for 106 yards. Fantasy managers will want to leave Nacua in all starting lineups as the Rams take on a Seahawks that has allowed the 12th-most half-PPR points to opposing wideouts in the last three weeks. Nacua quickly became a must-start in fantasy after going for 1,486 receiving yards and 105 receptions in his rookie season in 2023.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee) will "try to play" in Sunday's divisional encounter with the Seattle Seahawks. The wideout spent time on the IR because of a knee issue before returning for the Week 8 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings, finishing with seven grabs (nine targets) for 106 yards. Unfortunately, he re-aggravated the injury during practice and is listed as questionable for Week 9. There are other reports suggesting he'll be out there on Sunday. However, fantasy managers should monitor things throughout the day. If Nacua isn't out there, Cooper Kupp's ceiling will rise even higher. It may also mean more targets for Tutu Atwell. Of course, Kyren Williams would be even more of a factor on the offensive end if Nacua ends up back on the shelf.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson will face the Seattle Seahawks in a road matchup this Sunday. The 25-year-old has been mostly quiet this season aside from a 13-target, seven-catch game in Week 5's 24-19 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He'll get a middle-of-the-road matchup in Week 9 against a Seahawks D that's letting up 6.1 yards per pass attempt to opposing offenses -- the twelfth-highest figure in the league. It's possible Parkinson sees more work than usual this week, with wide receivers Puka Nacua (knee) and Jordan Whittington (shoulder) questionable for the contest. Still, he'll be difficult to trust as a viable option due to his lack of consistency. The Stanford alum is RotoBaller's PPR TE27 in this week's rankings.
